Thanks for the _many_ suggestions to use <these> around the url (duh). I wasn't, but should have thought of that!


I only wish adding <them> fixed the problem more completely than it does :(

As it stands, this fixes the long-url problem completely for some folks, while other mail clients(?) wrap the url for display, but keep it intact for linking, and still others both wrap and break it at the wrap point, so a manual edit is required to repair the url.

I'm happy with any improvement, but would welcome further suggestions or insight. Would sending it as HTML mail (horrors!) guarantee no wrap? Is there a way to get Mail.app do this? I tried making the first line of the message be <HTML>, but that's clearly not it (didn't really think so).

Again, thanks for the responses.
